A viral hashtag with nearly 400,000 posts in the last 24 hours has Thai netizens imagining a country where the politics was not dominated by corruption and military interference.

Online web users used the hashtag to fantasize about a Thailand where political conflict was not a part of daily life.

The hashtag has prompted some thoughtful and colorful responses as a result.
